Riverside Job Fair
As a response to the needs of the business community, the Chamber created the Riverside Job Fair, hosted at the Galleria at Tyler, in order to convene businesses and qualified candidates for local employment opportunities. Job seekers from around the region have the opportunity to practice interview skills, integrate resume and cover letter writing tips, participate in workshops, and make connections with their ideal employer. Additionally, local business and industry employers can discuss open positions with qualified candidates. Event admission is free and open to the public. Riverside College & Career Fair The Riverside College & Career Fair gives over 7,000 high school and college students one-stop access to future career and educational opportunities. This is a great opportunity to set the foundation for the region’s future workforce, keeping these students in Riverside for their future employment. Event admission is free and open to the public. Riverside Unified School District CTE Showcase The Chamber partners with Riverside Unified School District’s (RUSD) Career Technical Education Department to put on the CTE Showcase, convening local businesses, students, and teachers to foster partnerships and create networking opportunities. This event gives attendees an idea of what students learn within their respective CTE Pathways and encourages local businesses to get involved with CTE pathway advisory committees. Read Across America – Dr. Seuss Day The Chamber supports Read Across America and enlists members to visit a classroom, engage with students, and read from their favorite children’s book. This annual event recognizes the importance of motivating children to read in order to create a workforce that is ready for 21st century jobs.
